If I remove the Monitored Inbox Settings, then Mail send Settings is no problem.
After it is set like attached photos,the Mail Send Settting cannot work. Anyone can fix this? enter image description here

I have seen in many cases that if the mailer is owner checked then you need to make sure that the email you put in "Email address to send mail from" is the same as the user who owns the contact.
I am not sure about your SMTP but for SES it is very common. Also ensure when you create email, in the advance settings the from address is blank or have the same email address.

I am using cfmail tag. I am able to send emails however its not totally working. One problem is that for some it go to the junk folder. And secondly, for some emails it doesn't even reach the destination.
I am working for a university and they have their gmail portal with their own email extension. for example #universityname.ca but its actually a gmail account. I am trying to send email to this and it doesn't even reach the destination.
I assume these emails are being filtered out as spams and blocked before reaching, what settings do I need so they don't go to junk and they are not filtered out as spam.
snippet:
<cfmail to="my.email#universityname.ca" from="sender#gmail.com" subject="Example email">
Your Email Message!!
</cfmail>
Also I am not admin, thus I don't have access to mail settings.
Some email providers have very strict settings that make it nearly impossible to spoof a 'FROM' address with cfmail.
On top of that, sometimes you have to allow "less secure" apps to access your gmail account if you want ColdFusion to be able to send automated messages. That may be stopping you before you even get started.
Here is an example of what I do on my server. By specifying a port, server, username, and password of the true 'FROM' address, I never run into problems, and instead of spoofing an email address outright, I just mask it like so, then change the replyto attribute to something appropriate.
<cfmail
to="me#me.com"
from="Custom Name Here <XXX#x.com>"
subject="Website Contact"
type="html"
server="smtp.gmail.com"
port="587"
username="XXX#x.com"
password="ZZZ"
usetls="true">

I have an email address set up on a certain domain, and I have added an alias email address in my Google Apps account set up on another domain. I've also added that alias on the second domain to "Send mail as" to be able to send emails from that email address.
Problem is that when I send emails from that alias, they don't appear in the sent items. Why is this? How can I resolve it?
i just figured it out and it now works, even previously sent mails from an alias via gmail also appear in my sent messages.
in gmail, go to settings, account and imports, in the "send mail as" section, click on "edit info" next to the account which you are having the problem with.
on the screen which pops up, uncheck the radio box for "treat as an alias" dont change any other info, click next step, enter your password and click save changes.
thats all it took to sort out my issue.
best regards
They way I'm reading this is: you've added an alias/secondary in Google Apps account, example.com, for another domain you own, test.com. After doing this, you created an email alias for your Google Apps user and setup a send as address for #test.com within your #example.com account.
If this is the case, the expected behavior is: emails you send from your example.com account as your test.com account will appear in the 'Sent Mail' label for your example.com account. I've just double checked this to confirm.
Can you please provide your exact steps to reproduce the issue if the above isn't correct or you're seeing different behavior?
Sign in to your Google Apps email.
Click the in the upper-right and select Settings along the top of any page, and select the Accounts tab.
Under Send mail as, click Add another email address.
In the Email address field, enter your name and alternate email address.
Click Next Step >> and then click Send Verification. Gmail will send a verification message to your other email address to confirm that you own it.
Locate the message from Gmail. Open it and and either click the link contained in the message or enter the confirmation code in the Accounts section of your Google Apps email settings.
Then select
When replying to a message:
Reply from the same address the message was sent to
Trying to get a list of my email recipients who have seen my email, and then to use a different medium to address who didn't see (via SMS/Call).
I could get the number of people who saw the email by having a hit counter set up in a web server, looking for a method to get this done now. Any help?
Thanks.
It can't be done reliably. Popular email clients will not do anything to alert the sender that an email was received because this allows spammers to detect if the email address is valid. That's why most email clients block remote images until the user clicks "Show Images" because the images could be used for this purpose.
Email system support something called a "read receipt" that is intended for this use but most clients will never send one.
You can detect if an email bounces but receiving an email and viewing an email are two different things.
I am specifying "FROM" address usinf setFrom() method, But i still receive mails having "FROM" address of SMTP authentication mail id. and want to set the "FROM" address dynamically. which keeps changing. What is the RFC282 standard to achieve this.
The solution from google is this
Gmail lets you send messages with another of your email addresses listed as the sender instead of your Gmail address. This feature helps you manage multiple accounts from the Gmail interface; it works only if you already own the email account linked to the alternate address
Select the Accounts and Import tab (or Accounts tab, if you're using Google Apps).
Under Send mail as, click Add another email address.
In the 'Email address' field, enter your name and alternate email address.
Choose one of two options:
Use Gmail's servers to send your mail (this is easier to set up)
Use your other email provider's SMTP servers (we recommend this option for professional mail accounts or domains). Note for Google Apps users: Depending on your domain2 type, this feature may be disabled by default. Talk to your administrator if you have any questions.
If you choose to use Gmail's servers:
Click Next Step >> and then click Send Verification. Gmail will send a verification message to your other email address to confirm that you own it.
Open your other account and either click the link in the message Gmail sent or enter the confirmation code in the Accounts section of your Gmail settings.

The overhead involved is that any new from address needs a alias to be set in Gamil authentication mail account. Its not suits for enterprise salable app.
Other solution is You can install a mail server (hmailServer). This server allows you to set the custom from address
If any body knows other solutions, please suggest me.
It's up to your mail server. Often mail servers will prevent you from using any From address other than your actual login name. This helps prevent spam. Depending on your mail server, there may be ways to convince it that you should be allowed to use other From addresses.
These are two different things that you are talking about:
The id that you are mentioning is part of smtp handshaking protocol which usually is mapped to "Return-path" field in mime-header.
Whereas the id that comes in "FROM" field which actually is displayed in mail-list is been appended by the mail server when u compose the mail.
So if you can modify the mime header then make sure that "FROM:" field contains the id that yuou want to set not the smtp authentication id.
btw its rfc822
Have worked for rediffmail technical team in order to develop and enhance smtp, pop and imap protocols
Its depends on your mail server and configuration setting
At the moment, we are sending an email address verification email each time someone signs up. This email has been causing a number of problems: people don't get it, they just don't click the link in the email or the email gets block by spam or some other method. We are working on resolving the spam issue, although I don't think it's possible to completely resolve it.
I'm wondering what other methods there might be for verifying and email address. Is there any other way to verify an email address without sending an email? Or is there another method of ensuring people aren't signing up with fake information?
I'm not sure if there are other good methods, but sending an email and having them click a link is definitely the simplest and most accurate.
A main feature to sending that email, is for the person to verify that it's actually them that requested it.
The only way to verify someone owns an email address is to have him use it.
As for verifying users don't enter fake information - not even sending an email can help. With so many disposable/temporary email services out there (like GuerrillaMail) , someone can fill up your form with false info, post a temp email address, log to that address and click the link in your email - manually or programatically.
You have to trust your users to come back for your content, and ignore spammers.
